Natural Paving Products boosts sales team

Published: 20 April, 2015

As business continues to boom, Natural Paving Products (UK) has strengthened its sales team with the addition of two hard landscaping veterans, bringing its total national sales force to nine.

With the appointment of Dean Martin and Tom Newbold, the company is better equipped than ever to meet the needs of merchants nationwide.

Mr Newbold is taking on the north London, Oxford and Reading area as regional sales manager, while Mr Martin, also as regional sales manager, will look after Wales, Birmingham, Black Country and Bristol. Both will report in to Andy Toovey, southern sales manager at Natural Paving Products, and will look to increase brand awareness and sales through a targeted merchant only approach.

Mr Newbold and Mr Martin will work hard to build strong relationships with new and existing merchant partners that go well beyond the standard supplier-customer dynamic. The pair will also continue Natural Paving Products’ strict merchant only policy, offering further support with back-selling opportunities and working to increase membership of its Approved Landscaping Professionals scheme.

Malcolm Gough, business development director at Natural Paving Products, said: “The addition of Tom and Dean is testament to Natural Paving Products’ growth in recent times and presents an exciting opportunity to build even further upon our recent success. As we grow, we are determined to maintain the same level of comprehensive support that our customers expect and with the appointment of two additional, seasoned regional sales managers, I’m confident we can continue to go beyond our customers’ expectations.”

Russell Roof Tiles has strengthened its technical department with a series of promotions. Mark Parsons and Adrian Ryding have been promoted to technical director and technical manager respectively, cementing the knowledge, skills and expertise in the team.

AKW has appointed Andrew Crown to the role of sales and marketing director. The company says he will be a driving force behind its ambitious plans for growth and further development of its market position in the care, social housing, retirement and mainstream sectors.
